That was a nervous watch online, can only imagine what it was like inside tannadice.

Brilliant scenes when Mochrie scored and at full time, that's what football is all about.

I saw Warnock claiming his Aberdeen team were bullied, christ knows what he would make of this Utd team. We are far too nice all over the park.
Nobody leaves a foot in, no stray elbows no anything.
If we had a few good old fashioned battles in the tunnel we would be bottom of the fight league by miles.
Can we please sign a few dirty horrible bastards.

 
It is weird that we are in this situation, when our manager is Jim Goodwin, with Davie Bowman as a coach. Surely the one thing that the two of them know about is letting the other team know they are in a game.

I agree about the play offs, can't see us wining one. We generally dont play well on big occasions, going all the way back to cup finals in 80s. Plus the scheduling is heavily favored towards the 11th team in top league.

If we can get enough wins to get automatic promotion, the team need massive improvement.

McMann and Grimshaw give 100% effort and get the basics of defending right, but they are so awkward on the ball going forwards, it's like a foreign object to them.

Docherty injuries just keep happening, how many games has he actually played for us compared to being unavailable?

Up front, it's hard to see who can step up a level for us. Possibly Kai who is young and improving. Watt and Moult, their finishing was poor tonight, apart from the goal.

Stop the clock when ball is not in play - totally agree

Sin bin for dissent or a tactical foul - its good that they are trying to tackle these two problems. I am not sure a sin bin is the right solution, teams will just sit deep and or keep possession if they know it's only for a few minutes

No offsides - disagree, would completely change the game


Rolling subs from 18 man squad - disagree, would give the bigger clubs like the two from glasgow,even more of an advantage. I think 5 subs from a bench of 9 is already too many.

Loick Ayina has signed for Ross County on a loan deal till end of the season.


He could have been an option for us, as a right footed centre half.

Hopefully Ross Graham can continue his form from the Inverness game until Gallagher is back, even though he is playing kinda out of position.

I have had similar thoughts.

It's either someone at united trying to get a feel for any appetite or hostility from united fans towards a ground share, or someone from dundee fc doing this to try and improve the business case for their new stadium at Camperdown.

United win 1-0, Tony Watt in the 87th minute

Considering the injuries, that's a good result.

Well done to Ross Graham and the rwst of the team for keeping a clean sheet ip there, aslo good to see Archie meekison back fit and playing.

Really needed that win, and it's another clean sheet.

Gallagher going off injured is the main negative, bbc think it's a groin injury.

Interesting that you have both chosen 4-4-2.

I was wondering the other day, the reason why we dont go with this shape, and play more directly sometimes.

Unless there are any injuries, got to be the same team.

I am hoping complacency doesn't creep in, after last two results. We need to go there and win the battles and get a result, momentum is key.

Some other names from my time following united

John Clark, Kevin Gallagher, Iain Ferguson, Jim McInally, Brian Welsh, Erik Pederson, Kjell, Morgaro Gomis

It would also be a nice touch if some of the McLean family were there.

I'm interested to hear from anyone who coaches or has studied data on football, on the thinking behind this tactic.

It seems obvious to me that at this level of football, we should be keeping it simple. Play the ball long to our striker, if we don't win the first ball, have players in a position to win the second ball. Even if we don't win the second ball, then we have the majority of our players behind the ball in a safe area of the pitch.

Hang in there Billy, hope you feel better soon.

From watching online, conditions were terrible, pouring rain nearly all of the game.

Our goal was a good corner from Declan Glass, flicked on at near post by a united player (Holt?) and Moult heads home from close range.
